MODIS-derived NDVI Metrics

Summary

GINA and the National Park Service worked together to develop a MODIS-derived NDVI metrics algorithm. The data products from this project are available as a Web Coverage Service (WCS) with MODIS-derived yearly NDVI metrics. The data coverage includes the entire state of Alaska for the years between 2000 and 2016.

Data Sources

The NDVI metrics algorithm uses eMODIS data provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center. The data can be downloaded from the USGS-EROS eMODIS website.
